|
|
year, earning them three consecutive victories in their |
|
|
classification; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Contenders for the Lone Star Cup compete in a |

|
WHEREAS, Beating out their nearest rival, Austin Westlake, by |
|
|
six points, the Highlanders captured the cup with a total score of |

|
|
championships; in addition, The Woodlands also boasted |
|
|
high-performing boys' basketball, football, and soccer teams and |

|
district championships; and |

|
WHEREAS, By claiming its fourth Lone Star Cup in five years, |
|
|
The Woodlands High School has further added to its enviable record |
|
|
of excellence, and all those associated with the school can take |
|
|
justifiable pride in their outstanding accomplishment; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas |
